LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #6 - October 2020

I was hoping to have posted about this last Thursday, but it took a while for my box to arrive. There was an issue with some people’s subscriptions and it mean’t some orders were not generated for existing subscribers. The issue was corrected and I have now received my box. Last month’s box was the Birthday Edition and this month we have the Retreat Edition with an indigo themed box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £58.00 altogether!

Here is what I received this month:-

GLOV Hair Wrap

| £14.99 |

This hair towel is made of from microfibres, which means it is gentler for your hair. I use a hair wrap towel every time I wash my hair, so this will come in very handy. I usually prefer darker colour towels as white ones look grubby after a while.

| Full Size - £14.99 |

ECOOKING Overnight Foot Cream

| 30ml - £8.10 |

This foot cream is supposed to remove dead skin as well as moisturise. It works best overnight and it is recommend that you wear socks over the cream. It contains Eucalyptus and Menthol to soothe and cool the skin. I received two little 15ml jars of the cream. The scent reminds me a lot of Vicks VapoRub. I’m not really into foot creams or body creams in general, although I do use hand cream, but I will give it ago. Luckily the 30ml amount came in two separate jars, so I can always give one away.

| Full Size: 100ml - £26.00 |

BY TERRY Baume De Rose Flaconnette

| 2.3g - £14.00 |

This lip balm is infused with shea butter, rose flower wax and Vitamin E. It should glide onto your lips and provide nourishment with a subtle shine. This was the September Sneak Peak item. I am into using a heavier lip product at night before bed. I use a light solid wax SPF lip balm during the day and then a thicker oil/cream based lip balm in the evening. I am excited to give this a go once I have finished up my Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Lip Oil Crystal Elixir.

| Full Size: 7ml - £32.50 |

BEAUTY PRO Eye Therapy Under Eye Mask

| 1 pair - £4.25 |

This eye mask is a soothing and cooling treatment to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and reduce dark circles and puffiness. I quite like eye masks and I can’t wait to give this one a go. Some BB subscribers may have received the STARSKIN Smoothing Bio-Cellulose Second Skin Eye Catcher Mask instead of this one.

| Full Size: 3 pairs - £4.95 |

Bubble T Earl Grey Bath Tea

| 100g - £5.99 |

These bath salts are supposed to relieve aches and pains whilst leaving you feeling relaxed. This is a limited edition blend in partnership with LookFantastic. I prefer showers to baths and I can’t actually remember the last time I had a bath! I will probably not use these salts, but I have heard very good things about bath salts in general.

| Full Size: 100g - £5.99 |

Balance Me Bakuchiol Serum

| 7ml - £11.00 |

This facial serum should provide anti-ageing benefits without sensitivity and irritation. It should also give you a smoother texture, enhanced collagen production and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The main ingredient, Bakuchiol is 100% plant based and is an alternative to retinol. I have tried a few different serums this year and I now have another one to test. I actually quite like testing them, but I haven’t re-purchased one I have tried yet though because there are so many interesting ones available, some are also highly expensive!

| Full Size: 30ml - £32.00 |

This was kind of a boring box for me, not really worth the extra wait for it. I am excited to try out a couple of the products, but I am just underwhelmed a little. I hope next month’s box is more exciting and I can’t wait to receive my Advent Calendar this month. My box this month was worth £58.33.

The Sneak Peak for November’s Box is that you should receive an 8ml tube of the NAOBAY Detox Oxygen Light Cream (worth £16.00).

Escada Collector's Edition Gift Set

I’ve always been interested in trying Escada fragrances, but there are so many to choose from and I didn’t want to risk buying a full size bottle. I came across this little gift set whilst I was shopping online at Boots and clicked buy straight away! All four fragrances are in a tiny, but cute 4ml potion looking bottle. Here are the four scents you get to try:- TURQUOISE SUMMER This bottle is a turquoise/clear theme and contains the notes; pineapple, strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrant, peach, violet, orange blossom, vanilla, sandalwood and musk. It smells really strong of orange blossom and kind of like a car air freshener. It does linger quite a while on the skin, but it is not really a strong scent. Overall I don’t like this scent. It doesn’t really smell of anything to me and what you can smell isn’t what I would call pleasant. I give this perfume 1/5 . BORN IN PARADISE This bottle’s theme is the same as Turquoise Summer and contains the notes; green apple, watermelo...

KALEIDOS Futurism VII: Sashimi City Palette

This was the futurism palette that I was the most excited about trying. It’s the one that has the most cohesive colour story to me and I do love me some warm neutrals! I still have three more futurism palettes to test out and I can’t wait. THE PACKAGING The packaging is a long thin rectangle shape and the concept reminds me of a wardrobe. There is a purple, pink and coral city skyscraper theme all over the packaging. It has a magnetic closing and you open up the left side first and then the right side to reveal the circular eyeshadow pans and long thin mirror inside. The outside theme continues to the inside. The eyeshadow shade names come printed on a removable plastic sheet. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get six 1.33g eyeshadows/pressed pigments in Matte (M), Duo-Chrome (DC) and Multi-Chrome (MC) finishes.   ·          Rich and Velvety Texture ·          Smooth as Silk Application ·   ...
